-----
Frank believed that Matsuo might have some clues as to where his parent corpses might have been moved. Alongside that, he also wanted to greet his friend again, the one with who he had shared a few challenges together, especially one against a powerful Oni before…
"I wonder how's the Oni incident is going…" he wondered.
He decided to not bring too many people with him, just choosing Gwendolyn and Kamei this time around, the other members of the family understood that he didn't have to call too much attention, so they decided to remain inside the house for the moment, although Frank left some Soul Clones with them if they ever wanted to go out, to monitor them from not doing anything stupid.
"This is such a beautiful city, so many houses all packed up together… but there are also big plazas filled with trees, and all these buildings have such fine architecture… Oof, is it my idea, or is rather hot today?" wondered Gwendolyn. Her divinity was fire, but she was suppressing most of it, and also felt the heat over her body, but asked for it because it might just be her powers.
"Yeah, I think summer just started, so the cicadas might begin chirping soon," said Frank.
"Hahh… I can't believe I miss the stupid cicadas…" sighed Kamei.
"Cicada? Is that a bug?" wondered Gwendolyn.
"Yeaaah… It is an annoying bug that is always chirping incredibly loudly, especially in summer, where it is its mating season," said Frank.
"Ooh… I see…" said Gwendolyn.
"It's just a stupid thing that we Japanese associate with summer… Never mind it," said Kamei.
"Oh no, I am glad to know about that stuff, it is very interesting to know a lot about all of it. Both of you are my family now, so knowing about the culture of another world is important… Frank has accepted and learned a lot about our culture in Terra, so the least I could do is do the same for yours," said Gwendolyn with a gentle smile, both Frank and Kamei skipped a beat. Gwendolyn was sometimes way too nice…
"Is that so? Well, we can teach you more about Japan later," said Frank.
"Yeah! There's a lot of places we want to visit again… A little nostalgia trip, maybe," said Kamei.
"Nice! I would gladly go with Annabelle and the rest," said Gwendolyn.
The trio walked through the streets of Japan as they reached where the Monk Clan used to be.
They quickly reached the large door that went into the territory of the monk clan, this is the place he had entered many times with Matsuo before…
Frank glanced at the door with a? bit of resolve.
He moved towards the speaker as he clicked it.
Ding dong~
After a few seconds, suddenly, the voice of someone answered the speaker.
"Yes?"
Frank immediately recognized the voice, it was Matsuo!
Even after months, he still sounded the same at the end…
"Hey, long time no see. How have you been doing?" asked Frank, as suddenly, Matsuo fell silent.
…
…
…
"F-Frank?!" asked Matsuo, getting all crazy, Gwendolyn and Kamei opened their eyes wide as they were surprised as well over the young man's overreaction.
"Yeah, it's me. So? Are you going to let me in or you're going to leave me here waiting?" asked Frank.
"Alright! I will get there, wait a bit!"
Matsuo quickly closed the call as he rushed into the front door, in 10 seconds, he was here. And Frank, Gwendolyn, and Kamei were able to clearly feel how he used some sort of magic to move incredibly quickly…
FLASH!
Everyone's eyes were greeted by a handsome young man with emerald eyes and clear brown hair, Kamei's eyes immediately scanned him with sudden blossoming interest.
"FRANK!"
Matsuo suddenly rushed towards Frank and hugged him!
"Eeeehhh? You're hugging me?! Isn't that kind of gay?" asked Frank, joking over it as Matsuo didn't care about his comments.
"Shut up, you idiot! Ah, I really shouldn't call you an idiot, I really fucking missed you! I feel so bad! Man… you've had it rough… For fuck's sake! You bastard! Come in! The entire clan actually wanted to apologize to you…" said Matsuo, as he grabbed Frank in between tears as Gwendolyn and Kamei were ignored.
"Oi, don't ignore my sister and my wife!" roared Frank, slapping the stupid face Matsuo was making as Matsuo suddenly snapped back to reality.
"AH! Eh? Your sister? So this is her… Ah… it must have been rough for her too… Sniff… Oh man, I am so sorry, little girl…" sighed Matsuo.
"Eh? It's okay… (What with this guy? He's handsome but he's acting like a kid…)" said Kamei.
"And this is your wife? Ah, she's a pretty woman- AH?! WIFE?! Since when?! What?! Eh?! How?!" asked Matsuo, falling over his butt as he glanced at the radiant beauty that was Gwendolyn, even without her fox parts showing up with her special artifact, she was still an immensely beautiful woman… Matsuo was left speechless…
How could a timid and na?ve guy like Frank get such a beautiful milf as his wife out of thin air?!
Also, didn't he liked Harumi?!
"Long story short- Erm, I will explain it later, don't be so unpolite with her… She's Gwendolyn, and my sister's name is Kamei," said Frank.
"A-Alright, nice to meet you two, I am Matsuo, an old friend of Frank," said Matsuo with a humble smile.
"Nice to meet a good friend of my husband," said Gwendolyn, giving a gentle smile.
"N-Nice to meet you," said Kamei while nodding timidly.
"Alright, there's a lot to talk about, so let's go directly to the tower, we'll meet the Great Ancestor there, my parents, and the elders… We all owe you a big apology…" said Matsuo, changing his wacky nature and getting all serious once more.
"An apology…?" wondered Frank, he didn't seem to remember why they would need to apologize, although he would be reminded whenever he was to get into the tower…
Within the tower, several figures discussed the return of Frank.
